PLAYERS: 5.1 Any junior player (i.e. U15 or U17) may play in one other team in a higher grade per week provided always that they are registered in no more than two teams.

Failure to do so will result in a $50 penalty, to cover the cost of referees. The opposing team will be awarded 3 points (20 - 0 score). 11 . RESULTS: It is the floor controller’s responsibility to send the official Score Sheets and the Game Report to the Premier League Controller; however it is all team’s responsibilities to ensure that the score sheet is sent in and results are updated and accurate on College Sport website; www.asbcollegesport.co.nz. Corrections to results will not be accepted within 5 working days of a semi finals or finals match. The final results for the 2011 competition will be produced at the Auckland Secondary Schools Basketball AGM. Unless any issues are raised at the AGM or in the following week, these are the results that will be used for the promotion/ relegation for the following year’s season. 12 . GRADE PLACING AND SEEDINGS WILL BE DETERMINED BY: 1. Teams shall be classified according to their win loss records; see point 8 above for point’s breakdown. 2. If there are two teams in the classification with equal points, the result(s) of the game(s) between the two teams involved will be used to determine the placing’s. 3. If the points and the goal average in the games between the two teams are still the same, the classification will be determined by the goal average of all the games played in the group by each team. 4. If more than two teams are equal in the placing, a second classification will be established, taking into account only the results of the games between the teams that are tied. 5. If there are still teams tied after the second classification, then goal average will be used to determine the placing, taking into account only the results of the games between the teams still tied. 6. If there are still teams tied, the placing will be determined using the goal average from the results of all their games played in the group. 7. If, at any stage, using the above criteria, a multiple team tie is reduced to a tie involving only two teams, the procedure in 1 and 2 above will be applied.
